Well known and admired ProPower racer Bill Glidden had some
trouble hooking up the big shots of nitrous at the Reynolds facility. Dizzying
tire shake forced Glidden to shut down on his first two attempts at qualifying
but he seemed to have sorted it out by round 3 blasting to a 6.91 at 200.31mph
putting him in the number 1 slot. However, in eliminations on Sunday the
traction woes returned with Glidden smoking the tires and losing in round one to
the slowest qualifier Brit Floyd. Glidden's new sheet metal, dual dominator
engine with a Scat Billet Crank from ProPower seems to be making plenty of power
netting him some impressive ET's in both Bradenton and Reynolds. Look for him in
Columbus to lay down some great times.
